Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Non-slip bath coating in Gilshochill without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

What affects the price in Gilshochill

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Gilshochill

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Gilshochill contact us include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.
